Stiles Switch BBQ & Brew Review - Brentwood - Austin - The Infatuation

"When people visit from out of town in the middle of the summer, we take them to Stiles Switch, because they offer a couple of things: beer on tap and an indoor air conditioned space (there’s also a patio). We also take people here because the traditional Central Texas barbecue is just always consistently solid, with fantastic brisket, gigantic peppery beef ribs, chunky pulled pork, and sausages with a good snap. We’re also big fans of their and their corn casserole. There can be a bit of a wait during weekend lunch and prime dinner hours, but the line moves fast, so you won’t have to worry about a trip here turning into a multi-hour event. There’s a second location of Stiles Switch in Cedar Park, as well as their sister restaurant, The Switch BBQ, out in far west Austin. " - Raphael Brion

Austin Venue North Door Closes, Mexican Restaurant Pueblo Viejo Stays Open - Eater Austin

"Stiles Switch owner Shane Stiles talked about how he came to open his several restaurants — the Brentwood barbecue spot, its recent Cedar Park counterpart, and the Dripping Springs smoked meats and Cajun restaurant the Switch — with the Chronicle last week. He shared how he was potentially going to open the original Stiles Switch on South First with a beer garden, but that address became home to Thai restaurant Sway instead, how the Belterra Village development company Endeavor reached out to him about opening a restaurant there, and why they decided to expand into Cedar Park (“Cedar Park is our customer base,” said Stiles.)." - Nadia Chaudhury

Good experience. Not a restaurant feel, more like a lunch place. Brisket Cuts weren't too dry. Seasoning was good. Table sauces were decent. Mexican cooks get it done. Prices fair. Need more beer and drink selections.

This authentic stick to your ribs and eat it too kinda joint is worth making a stop if you reside in or going to Austin Texas. Everything on the menu was delicious and on Father's Day when we were waiting in line to order they were passing out a free beer! That's service and showing old time values.

My group of 4 ate here for lunch and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The brisket, mac and cheese and Brussels sprouts were amazing and the ribs, pinto beans and sausage were very good. I personally didn't really care for the potato salad, but other than that, everything was great. I also enjoyed all of the accouterments. The staff was also personable and knowledgeable.

Stiles! It’s one of my go to places for BBQ in Austin! While they don’t do everything amazing, the things they do well, they do really well. I love the Mac, pudding and the best corn casserole side. The pork ribs are in my opinion the best ribs in all of Austin. I love how peppery and spicy they are but it is not overpowering. Turkey is always great and same with the pulled pork. One of my favorites to go. And the hawg rub fries are amazing.

Service was great, I wish I could say the same about the food. Pulled pork sandwich was very basic and the flavor wasn’t there. The guy recommended the house bbq sauce which wasn’t it nor the regular bbq they had in hand. The mac and cheese was very basic.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently visited Stiles Switch BBQ in Cedar Park for the first time, and I was thoroughly impressed! From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. They even offered us samples, which was a great way to help us decide on our meal. We decided to get a family meal to feed five adults and one child, and it was more than enough food! The smoked sausage, ribs, and brisket were all absolutely delicious—each meat had its own unique flavor and was perfectly cooked. But I have to say, the sides were just as amazing! The Brussels sprouts, with their sweet caramel taste, were my absolute favorite. They added a perfect touch to the meal that I didn’t expect. Overall, I can’t recommend Stiles Switch BBQ enough! The food, service, and atmosphere made for an unforgettable dining experience. I can’t wait to go back and try more of their incredible offerings!

Great new location, food is good as always. Had to wait in the line for about 30 minutes. Had the beef rib, pork burnt-ends, turkey, ribs, and brisket. All were good. Corn casserole, and brussel sprouts were good. Mac and cheese was just okay. Highly recommended

The BBQ ribs and brisket were delicious. Perfectly seasoned and cooked just right. The mac and cheese was descent as well as the potato casserole. The restaurant was clean and very spacious with plenty of seating. The staff was very friendly. The price was just right considering they definitely give you your money's worth and you will leave on a full stomach.

Excellent BBQ in Cedar Park. Better than others in my humble opinion. Wife's brisket was outstanding. I had the special sausage for the month of June - kielbasa - and it was excellent. Also had some pork ribs but not as good at the brisket and sausage. Sides were outstanding. Corn casserole some of the best anywhere. Like eating dessert. There are three locations in the Austin area. I think the Austin location is the one in the Texas Monthly Top 50, but this one was somewhat on our route home.

I'll be honest, their menu has A LOT going on but if you try a few things I doubt they'll disappoint. While this is a mid-upper range priced BBQ the quality is fairly consistent each time with a good portion of food. I don't eat brisket that much anymore cause it disagrees with my body but theirs is so tasty. Also if you like turkey PLEASE try theirs it's so flavorful. Their mac and cheese is okay like 7/10, tasty but not my favorite. Their brussels sprouts are good. Their fries are good. Their cornbread casserole is very delicious also. These are all items i've had multiple times and can safely recommend. Usually experience pretty quick service and am on my way soon thereafter. Good eats!

**Holy Smoked Meats, Batman!** The fam and I rolled into this BBQ joint like a herd of hangry wildebeests, and let me tell you--this place delivered enough meaty magic to send us into a carnivorous coma (worth it). **The Good, The Bad, and The Crispy:** Let's start with the sides, because *apparently* vegetables exist here too. The **tater tot casserole** was so decadent, I'm pretty sure it's what angels serve at their potlucks. I'd legit swim in a vat of it like Scrooge McDuck in his gold coins. The **brussels sprouts**? Phenomenal. They came with a sneaky little kick that whispered, "I respect your life choices, but I'm still judging you for not ordering more." And the **jalapeño coleslaw**? Creamy, tangy, not sweet--basically the Beyoncé of slaws. Now, the fries. Bless their lifeless, limp souls. They needed more CPR than my will to exercise after Thanksgiving dinner. And the **mac 'n' cheese**... Look, I'm no food snob, but if I wanted Kraft shells, I'd raid my 8-year-old's lunchbox. Send in the flavor cavalry, folks! **Let's Talk 'Bout the Mains:** - **Pulled Pork**: I didn't try it, but my mom--a woman who critiques restaurant meat like it's her Olympic sport--raved so hard I thought she was gonna propose to the chef. High praise from someone who thinks that her food is the only one worth eating. - **Brisket**: Tender enough to cut with a dirty look, but flavor-wise, it ghosted me. Thankfully, their **chile-lime BBQ sauce** (aka liquid gold) came to the rescue. Slathered that bad boy on like I was frosting a cake. - **Ribs**: *Ribs. Ribs. RIBS.* If these weren't the lovechild of a smokehouse and a spice rack, I'll eat my hat (but please don't make me--I look terrible in lettuce). Fall-off-the-bone perfection with a flavor punch that left me writing bad Yelp poetry. **Sauces & Saints (aka Staff):** The **salsa verde** deserves its own fan club, and the staff? Friendlier than a golden retriever with a caffeine addiction. Shoutout to them for tolerating my kid's 47th request for lids and soda. **Final Verdict:** Come for the ribs, stay for the tater tot baptism. Just maybe skip the fries unless you're into edible defibrillator practice.

So I really like stiles switch on Lamar and was in this area so thought I'd give it a try. The place looked super nice and clean. Staff were very helpful and quick with it. No complaints there. I hate to say but it's definitely below par when it came to the meats. Just wasn't the same. All of it was a lot tougher. The sausage seemed under cooked. The brisket wasn't hitting like the one on Lamar. The wings were even chewy. It wasn't enjoyable. Sides were all good. But whatever is different between the two, I hope they fix that asap. I won't be revisiting this site.

I've been here a few times now since we visit our family in Austin occasionally. This is an excellent location for delicious bbq if you don't want to deal with long waits. The seating inside is comfortable and air conditioned. They offer outdoor seating in the front patio, too. The service at the ordering counter is friendly and helpful, very much a staple of Texas. The bbq meats are all delicious. The brisket and pork ribs are off the charts. Very tender, smokey, and flavorful; I love that sweet glaze finish they add to the ribs. The turkey and pulled pork were good, too, but pretty on par with many other bbq joints. The sides are decent, but the stars are brisket and ribs. Do your self a favor and visit this place anytime in Cedar Park.

A lot of my fellow yelpers are bragging on this place and there's over 350 reviews. I've enjoyed their Lamar location in Austin, which is what had me coming here. In case you're not in the mood for barbecue, there are some other restaurants in the same strip center. Rosatis pizza, Momo sushi and Shiplys donuts next door. There's even P Terry's directly across the street. Inside there's plenty of seating, including covered seating outdoors. I do like the fact they have a one to three meat combo, but boy are they expensive! Before you order you can grab a dessert, beverage, small bottle of wine or an iced down beer in their trough. As you proceed through the line, they'll slice, plate and prepare your order. At the checkout, I was surprised they didn't flip the tip screen over on me, but there is a tip line on the bill for you to fill out or add to the jar. They do have some daily specials and on my visit it was some really delicious looking brisket burgers. I have to admit their potato salad and coleslaw are above average, especially with some jalapeños that are sliced into the coleslaw adding some heat. All the meat was tender, juicy, and had the perfect smoke ring. Their post oak smoked course ground peppered meats could compete with the best. Their barbecue sauce is the perfect match and their soft yellow potato bread is a great pairing. I got my order to go, and when I got home, I discovered they had accidentally given me a free order of their homemade fries. Definitely a great barbecue dining spot worthy of the price. Just check out my bill below. Nine photos included to entice you.

Great, consistent bbq spot. Typically has no line. I would put it in the same category as terry blacks, but I'd argue their sides are better. The Brussels are incredible. Laid back vibes with order at the counter. Everyone is very friendly and accommodating. Go here whenever I want good bbq fast. Don't sleep on their half chicken and chicken wings either.

During my recent visit to family in Austin, indulging in BBQ was an absolute must! We hit up one of their all-time favorite spots, conveniently located just a stone's throw from their house. What makes this place so special? For starters, it has a charming, unpretentious vibe--it's never too trendy, so while it's always bustling with energy, you can still savor every bite without feeling overwhelmed by crowds. And the food? It's consistently outstanding! Each visit leaves a craving for more and eager to return. I had the 2-meat plate for $25 and chose brisket and ribs. It came with 2 slices and 2 ribs. 2 sides also, which for me was fresh cucumber and tomato salad along with homemade mac and cheese. The brisket is done perfect with a good smoke ring and just salt and pepper seasoning. Ribs are finished the same way. The bbq sauce is on the side. I would have liked just a little more meat for the price, but otherwise it was all very good Staff is friendly and the restaurant is modern and clean. Overall a nice experience

4.5 My husband and I returned to Stiles Switch BBQ as we were in the area. We drove up, parked, went in line , placed our order, got our food, and then paid and sat down to eat in the restaurant. We both ordered the brisket sandwich and a side of potato salad and a tater tots casserole. The brisket sandwich was delicious and very filling. The potato salad was good as it had chunks of potatoes which I liked. The tator tot casserole surprised me. It was yummy. It had tator tots with cheese, chives, and bacon. Overall it is still one of my favorite BBQ places to stop at when I'm in the area. Tasty and filling BBQ with good sides. I will return in the future.

Best pulled pork I've had in ages. Evan though this restaurant is in a strip mall, the bbq and sides are legendary. My husband and I had the pulled pork sandwich. He had slaw ands I had the Brussel sprouts. The sprouts were roasted with a maple flavoring and a bit of balsamic glaze. I could have just eaten those. Both were delicious. The meat was piled high with a delicious smoky flavor. It didn't even need bbq sauce. It was moist but not greasy and very tender, not stringy. Our friends got the two meat plates with brisket and turkey , sprouts and cheesy tater tots. They had eaten here before and knew it was good. There was nothing left. Wished we had one of these in Dallas.

Can I just say Wow?! I was craving turkey and banana pudding, so I had to pop in here and grab lunch. My turkey sandwich was overflowing with thick slices of BBQ turkey.  It was too much for me, so I was able to have turkey sandwiches after I finished this one!  The bun was toasted, giving the sandwich a nice crunch. I added lettuce and tomato and was pleased with how fresh they were. The banana pudding was good--there was a good ratio of pudding, wafers, and whipped topping. The only negative was that I found it too sweet. But it's pudding, so I should have expected that as a possibility. The dill potato salad was delicious.  It was a nice change from the standard fare other restaurants serve.

I think this place is very underrated. They have great brisket, wings, and I just tried the pichanha. How does this place have some of the best chimichurri I've ever had? I don't know, but maybe they'll DM me the recipe.

I absolutely LOVE this place! It's so good that you'll find yourself thinking about it even before realizing you want to go out to dinner. It's so good that you'll go there anytime you can and will probably end up being a regular and make friends with all the staff members! I'm telling ya, it's freaking delicious! And I love the vibes of the place!

Okay so I had very high hopes for this place after seeing the photos and after seeing the reviews. So I ordered the quarter leg chicken meal with a side of Potato Salad, and corn casserole. I also ordered the beans and the peach cobbler. The potato salad was absolutely delicious but heavy heavy on the chives and the corn casserole was great and tasty. What caused my three stars were the beans and the peach cobbler. First of all, my beans were beans with black pepper. OMG the amount of BP was nuts! I couldn't eat it. And the PC, who outs Lemon juice in PC?! Besides the awful tang, there were plenty of lemon seeds as proof. The chicken was on the dry side and overly seasoned! Overall, maybe I'll try again but maybe not. I also tasted the cheesy tots. Those were fabulously cheesy! Great job with that!

This place is getting a lot of hype so had to try. They have counter service like any good bbq spot. The service is friendly, the ambiance is just like any bbq spot but the meats are above and beyond good! Here's what I had: Brisket- nice and tender and moist! I'd put it up there with franklins! Pulled pork- deliciously seasoned and well cooked! Pork belly- oh boy this is good! Get it now! Turkey- Best I've had!

We stopped in to grab a quick dinner, they had folks in the dining room but we were able to walk in and order right away. The folks behind us ordered quick as well. It's a nice location, plenty of comfortable seating and many tv's if say you wanted to keep an eye on college ball while you eat. We had the three meat plate, brisket, sausage, pulled pork with beans and Mac n cheese. As well as the Texas Fritos pie! (Brisket, chile concarne sauce), and cucumber & tomato salad. The food is so dang good. Listen it is a little pricey, but the quality to me is worth it. The whole dang world is expensive right now, of course the cost of food is included. In my opinion the quality and taste of the food we had tonight was well worth it. Plus and also they have Mexican Cokes, nice and crispy.

I've been visiting here for the last 3 months. Being a biased North Carolinian, I couldn't find a BBQ joint that I loved let alone liked. But one day my partner and I visited on a quiet afternoon. It was packed at all (although I've been here on days it is). We shared a three meat combo; brisket, burnt ends, and pork ribs with Mac and cheese and baked beans... with a sweet tea of course. The brisket was tender and juicy! It came with a side of sauce but I preferred it plain. The burnt ends fulfilled all of my taste buds desires!!! Sweet, salty, tangy, kick of spice. And as for the pork ribs, the pulled off the bone with ease. I will say on the first visit, the mean what heavily season with coarse ground pepper which could've been over powerful for some but something told me to try it on another day and it wasn't like that. So I would say there are probably a rotation of cooks. The beans were good not sweet like the Carolinas but they were good. And as for the macaroni/shells and cheese, I've noticed throughout Texas they all have a Velveta based sauce. It has a thick and creamy texture to it. I will also like to add that I've placed an order on UberEats and via phone call. The in-person customer service is far superior than on the phone. And to the worker name Cole, I'll never forget the laugh you gave when you thought I was with the large party. We laugh about it each time I visit. Haha. I love this place and I'm so happy to have found it.

The food here tastes great, but the pricing is outrageous and the protein portions are disappointing. I ordered the Burnt End one-meat plate for $21 and received a laughably small amount--about a third of it was just fat. When I pointed it out, they didn't offer to fix it and told me I'd have to pay for a double serving if I wanted more. The staff was dismissive and unhelpful. Definitely wouldn't recommend this place to friends or family.

OMG! The pork bellies are just great. Flavor, tender, and just could make a meal out of those alone. But it wouldn't be fare to not talk about the rest of the meats and sides. There is nothing here I didn't like. The corn casserole, beans, veggie mix, all very tasty. The inside was very clean and organized well to accommodate anywhere from 20 to 20 people in a group. Service members really knew their cuts for the brisket as well. Sausage and ribs smoked just right. Don't forget classic deserts too. Pricing was reasonable for the portion sizes. Highly recommend them.

Very disappointed!! Drove from Georgetown to get the special, the "Natorious R.I.B", this past Sunday. Wife wanted to treat me for Fathers Day. After waiting in a very long line we placed our order which included the Special, along with pork burnt ends and 12 wings. The wings were very good as we're the pork burnt ends. What I'm very disappointed about was the Special, which was their most expensive item @ $39. Its supposed to weight at an average of 1.25lbs. We'll, what i received, if correct on the weight. Was about 1/2 pound of edible meat and 3/4 pound of inedible fat. Infact, the queso, which was added as part of the Special. Was all completely pured over the entiret fat side of the rib. So the queso flavored fat was NOT eaten. So again, I am bery disappointed with my visit to Stiles Switch and not sure if or when I will return.

Stiles Switch is a Texas Monthly top 50 BBQ spot. That's really all you need to know. Sure, it doesn't get the press of a Franklin's or Interstellar, but it's traditional Texas BBQ and sides can be held up against the best of them. Moist brisket, huge ribs, and a corn casserole to die for make Stiles a fantastic choice if getting in line at 6am isn't your thing.

We ordered takeout and really enjoyed the food. The ribs and brisket were on point, juicy and good flavor. Sides were average. My biggest complaint is that they charged me a 5% ($6.56) packaging fee... Is packing up your food not a part of getting take out?? Seems petty.

The Wife and I have decided to try and find the best, and maybe worst Frito Pie in Austin, if we travel elsewhere like San Antoine we may try there but focusing on Austin. Shana picked first and chose Stiles Switch. We have no set time frames, we are hoping once a month but it is also supposed to be fun so it may be less or more depending. The place is in a little shopping center and when we arrived there was not any wait but it got busier while we were there. They have two types of Frito Pie, so we decided we would each get one and share bites. Shana got the pulled pork Frito Pie and I got the brisket Frito Pie, I did ask for the sour cream to be taken off and it was not but otherwise it was fast and good service and we got our food quickly. There is lots of seating, tables, long tables, booths, whatever your choice or preference and several TV's around playing different sports. It was pretty chill over all as well. The staff was super friendly and fast. Both the Frito Pies were very good but Shana's gets the nod, hers was better than mine. We tried the Bayou Classic Sausage too due to my Cajun roots and while it was okay, Shana liked it way more than I did. We did try the frozen margaritas which were good. Above average and a pleasant surprise. Shana also tried the potato salad but I passed on sides due to the size of the Frito Pie. Now to the Finding Fritos part, the chili was good, the Fritos crunchy. They were presented very well with a fun garnish to give it color. They were very very good. As I stated Shana's won but the brisket one I got was a close 2nd. The pulled pork was better than the brisket. Shana came here from TN and has loved the BBQ but has been disappointed by the pulled pork options. This was the best IHO since leaving TN. High Praise as most things about TN she was more than happy to leave behind. The brisket was solid but not top tier. Still a great first pick and Shana pulls ahead on that score. Next up, due to it closing soon (sad) and doing something different, we hit up Highland lanes and the Lebowski's Grill for the Frito Pie Burger! Join us for our final meal and trip to this long time Austin entertainment venue

And absolutely outstanding barbecue restaurant. It makes it on many of the top 10 list for Austin for good reason. It was only me so I had to pass on the beef ribs which are sold in a month that far exceed the amount I could eat at one sitting. I opted for the brisket and I couldn't be happier. Mr Brown has definitely come to town on that plate. I should always be the case the size were not just there for decoration. The pinto beans were as good as I've ever had. The mac and cheese didn't let me ignore it and the hash brown casserole completely put me over the top. It's a good thing I worked out hard that day. And of course they've got a great big galvanized tub full of cold beer on ice. And of course, if you're in a snobby mood you can ask to taste a bunch of different craft beers and hold everybody up in line. Or you can be a man and grab your cold beer like you're supposed to from the tub! I wish I could have sampled the desserts but I was way too full!

Tried this for the first time today, 7-4-25. We just got carry out but the restaurant was packed, clean (from what I saw). We got the family pack as well as the pork bellies. Everything was exceptional and we could not be happier to have such a great bbq place so close that we do not have to wait in line for hours to get!

I hate to be the one but I'm going to keep this extremely transparent. My husband and I just ate here for a day date ... if you're any folk of color and had some really great BBQ in your day THIS ANIT IT, a waste of $100. The pinto beans and tater tot casserole were things only things we enjoyed. We had the ribs, brisket, sausage & macaroni, banana pudding. We did get the chocolate cake but have not tried it quite yet. My honest rating is a 2 out of 10...... Service was great one was very friendly

WOW, quick service, good food, great vibe. The workers gave some great recommendations and direction for what to order and how much to order. The price was very reasonable, especially for barbecue. We tried all of their sides and my favorites were the corn casserole and the brussel sprouts. I did feel like it was warm inside, but I understand that Texas is all together quite hot.

Took family there on Friday night. Overall it was good. We got the bbq for 8-10. Ribs were good. Brisket was good, not great. Sausage about the same. Sides were potato salad, very good; Mac and cheese, kids liked it; fries pretty good; Cole slaw was ok. Only complaint is that they required we get 4 qts of sides. Asked if we could split a quart and get two pints. One person said fine but he was overuled. That seemed a little absurd. It would have cost them a few cents for an extra container but did spend more than $225. Better than some but not top tier in my opinion.

Went here for the Wednesday special which was the smoked prime rib. Overall the prime wasn't bad, the other piece of the meat was very tender and juicy but the center was a bit dry. Oak smoked wings had a slightly smoky flavor but the sauce was had too much mayo for my taste but the wing was nice and juicy. Corn casserole is my favorite side here. Sweetness of the corn and the pop is always great. Service is always great here. They always cut the meat to pretty close to what you want. Tom of seating indoor and outdoor for when the weather is nice those few days in Austin/cedar park. The vibe is what you expected from a bbq restaurant.

I ordered the 3 meat plate with brisket, ribs and jalapeño and cheese sausage. Brisket was moist with great bark and the pork ribs were awesome too, try their tater tot casserole!

We've been on a BBQ Tour for the last 3 weeks being new to Texas. I've followed reviews to make the choice of where we were going next. From Austin to Georgetown, we be hit about 5 so far. This was definitely the best we've ate yet! The brisket is wet - the sides were rich and so many options. Other places have been super dry. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! And don't forget the banana pudding cups because GAA DAMN....

Y'all did something right. The brisket was perfect. But your smoked sausage?... y'all! Best. Smoked. Sausage. Ever!!! I've been back three times for the March sausage special. Pimento Sausage?! Wow! That stuff is incredible. All my life, all the bbq joints I've ever been to, I don't think I've ever not chosen sausage as one of my meat choices at a bbq restaurant. And I've almost always enjoyed it. But, y'all, you've ruined smoked sausage everywhere else for me now. Nobody else's will ever compare. Seriously. Not even close. I know, because yesterday I ate more of your pimento sausage, and today I had some jalapeño and cheddar sausage at what once was my favorite local bbq joint for smoked sausage, and honestly theirs just tasted like trash by comparison (which isn't fair to say of them; there's is great, but yours is just that much better!) I wish the pimento sausage special was a regular menu item. Please make it so. I'm going to miss it when it's gone. I don't want to wait until next March for more of it. Also, btw, your staff is helpful and does their job as one would expect - which is a far cry more than can be said about a lot of restaurants today. Nothing to complain about there. The service is flawless. Nice work. Also, I like the ambiance here. Very family friendly. It doesn't have that "hipster, better-than-thou" vibe about it like so many of the local joints in the bbq scene. I think you're tied, now, with another local favorite for my top favorite family-friendly bbq joints who have world class bbq, that doesn't make you wait in line for an hour or more for food, and who isn't out of all the meat you want when you get to the counter. You're better than all those other places. You have food, in stock, with good and fast service, and you've somehow managed to reinvent smoked sausage to make it like the best thing around. WOW. Yep. Love your place. I'll keep on coming back for more and more and more. Oh, worth mentioning: your sides options are awesome. The Brussels sprouts and the cucumber tomato salad with feta on top are excellent side options. Way better than leaving bloated because I ate beans, potatoes, and macaroni with my bbq. Nah, you give me lighter feeling sides options, and I really appreciate that. Nice touch.

After receiving the most bizarre massage of my life, I wanted some comfort food so I impulsively stopped at Stiles Switch on my way home. Parking was a little sparse but I managed to find a spot. It's counter service, much like a lot of barbecue joints. I ordered the two meat plate with brisket and pork ribs. It comes with two sides so I got the cucumber salad and the brussel sprouts. I wasn't sure on the salad but the staff member insisted on me trying it first and I was sold. The line didn't seem long, and it looked like there was an abundance of staff, but it felt like it took a little long to get through the line. Worth the wait! The brisket was tender and flavorful. The pork ribs had a nice kick of heat and fell off the bone. And the brussel sprouts were delicious and left me wanting more. I loved the barbecue sauce that they served with it! The two meat plate was massive and I ended up taking home another meal's worth of food, which I was thrilled to enjoy the next day. I'll definitely be back!

Enjoy coming here for Texas bbq. Pork belly burnt ends, pork ribs, and moist brisket are fantastic selection for the 3 meat combo. The sides are great too especially the loaded tator tots and brussel sprouts

The crew here does it all right, from their meat suppliers to their wood suppliers. The menu has standard bbq fare and a whole mess of daily and monthly specials (be sure to have the sausage of the month). I loved every bite and will have Stiles Switch on the itinerary anytime I'm near Austin!

By far my favorite BBQ spot! The hardest decision is what to order! I follow this place on FB just to find out what daily specials they got going on! Service is amazing! This place just scream a BBQ joint and wouldn't have it any other way!

This place has extremely good barbecue. The only problem is that it is very expensive . On average brisket is twice as expensive here than it is at Rudy's . It is better than Rudy's but it's not twice as good as Rudy's. The same thing goes for their turkey . The turkey is very good and is better than Rudy's but it is not twice as good as Rudy's . They have a very wide assortment of sides that are all tasty and their food is consistently good . It's the kind of place that you might bring someone who is visiting from out of town or for a birthday but not for every day lunches . It's just too expensive.

We got a 1LB of Brisket, Beef Ribs, and Pulled Pork. The best thing we had was the beef rib, full of flavor and fall off the bone. The pulled pork and brisket were good but very dry. This place does give you plenty of bbq sauce, one vinegar base and one traditional bqq. It was fun tasting the different bbq sauces with the different meats. The mac and cheese was bomb and the hash brown casserole was ok. Staff were really nice and the restaurant is clean with plenty of seating!

Casual Barbecue eatery that offers single meals and the ability to order meats by the pound. I was so happy to discover them when I relocated from central Austin, because my previous go-to was now quite a trek. I highly recommend the pork ribs, turkey, and brisket, and the potato salad.... y'all, this dill potato salad is crunchy, creamy, light, I could eat that every week and not get bored. There has been more than one occasion that I've called ahead to make sure they weren't out before ordering. The ordering process is very prompt, whether you stop in for a take away order or use a delivery service. It's not the biggest indoor seating area compared to other barbecue spots, but they also have a covered patio for those busy summer days. Parking can be tricky as the plaza isn't very big, so you might have to wait or circle around.

So close to my house and love the fact I can get one of the best all around BBQ experiences with no wait. Large space and never been with a line. Food is great. They got all your central Texas classics and do it well. Tried a two meat plate with brisket and jalepeno cheddar sausage and both were excellent. Jalepeno sausage wasn't overly fatty and had some good back of the throat kick from the jalepeno. Brisket is also great, with well rendered fatty meat. Whether you get the moist or the lean, both have great bark, good amount of smoke without overpowering and delicious luxury on some martin's potato bread. Their sides are also super killer. I love the corn casserole (dotted with corn kernals) and the brussel sprouts are super great as well and makes you feel a little healthier eating bbq. All in all, great shop, should definitely come by!

Tastyyyyy This is our go to BBQ place in the Leander/Cedar Park area. Service is ALWAYS great. Servers are always friendly and the employees here exude positive energy. You'll walk in and join the line that works like an assembly line. The meat gets prepared for you right in front of you (and you can sample it too). Be sure to try the Buford's Diablo Sandwich - so.good. I've also heard the margaritas are good but can't vouch for that myself.

This is a nice spot with lots of room and certainly doesn't get crowded as other bbq spots in the Austin area (well on the day we went at least). It wasn't the best bbq I've ever had but it was good. I think the prices were fair for the quality we got. I had the Diablo sandwich which was good but I wanted it to be better. Fine sandwich, just not great. Their fries are really good. Potato salad was solid. The Mac and cheese didn't have much cheese. Prob the worst item on the list of things I ate. I had some of my wife's cheesy tatertot casserole which was amazing and I probably should have got that for myself. Hopefully they keep that on the menu. My wife also had wings that came out smoking hot which I always appreciate. All in all this is a nice bbq spot if you don't want to pay the crazy prices for other bbq joints, though you may not get as delicious a meal in return. However the food here is good enough that I will for sure be back. Every staffer was very nice the day we went and left a good impression.

The food was not good the food was bland the corn casserole looked burnt and dry the brisket was dry and the rib was hard to bite and chew the Mac and cheese had no flavor and they only allow you to have one sauce the service was bad he the employee barely uttered a word while we tried to order and the place doesn't seem to be clean there is tables with food under them and in the chairs and they are calling that a ready table this place quite literally sucks.
